Jeep is running good. All fluids and grease 10/1/2016. BarsLeak Valve seal was added at oil change to help with oil burn. 150 miles since added, should have full effect in another 50-100 or so.

Home fuel up. Guessing as to exact gallons. It only took 7.3 and the gauge was still showing maybe 1/4 tank left, but I have to think I must have added 2 gallons at some point. Guessing, but this is close. Jeep is running very good since putting on the older Solex and no problems at all.

Jeep running great. Put on old Solex with 115 jet and o-rings on throttle shaft. Leak free! Starting good and not dying with choke pushed home after cold start. Disassembled the newer Solex and cleaned. All parts looked good so just blew out. Still in bag in storage. R&R'd all brake fluid and put in new DOT 4. Old fluid looked bad and showed over 2% water.

This tank was with the #115 main jet. A bit worse than the #112.5 but not bad. Also, just installed the new dry paper air filter. Need to check plugs...
